Java App not accepting input keys/mouse
Posted: Sat Jun 04, 2011 1:36 pm
I am having problems getting a standalone java-based application to accept keyboard input from Robotask. My script is simple with only two tasks: launch the app (this works fine) and send keys. I have tried variations for SendKeys task including "Emulate KeyPress" and "Send as Simple Text" with no behavior difference.The window is detected because it rises to the top window when I manually run the Send task. The text field is active and the text cursor is blinking in the login text field area.I tested and I have no problems getting input to work on Notepad or other similar utilities, so I know it is not a case of operator error.Robotask system log says: I: 6/4/2011 9:57:21 AM: Starting Task [Run "thinkTDA.exe "...] Cause: Manual runI: 6/4/2011 9:57:29 AM: Starting Task [Send keys to "Logon"] Cause: Manual runIf you want to try to duplicate this issue, the java application is available for free download at https://www.thinkorswim.com/tos/suiteFr ... g-s.tos.My configuration:Win7 SP1 64bitRobotask 4.4 patch #3I looked on this forum for any issues related to standalone Java apps but found next to nothing.Let me know if I can provide other information related to my problem in order to get this resolved. Thanks for your kind assistance!
